Education is at the heart of HAF’s mission to cultivate a resilient, food-secure Hawai‘i. By bringing agriculture into classrooms and creating hands-on learning experiences, HAF empowers students and teachers to see the connections between the land, the food we eat, and the careers that sustain our islands. From farm excursions and interactive workshops to innovative curriculum and entrepreneurial opportunities, our programs spark curiosity, build skills, and inspire the next generation of agricultural leaders.
The Hawai‘i Agricultural Foundation invites K–12 students statewide to participate in the 2026 Localicious® Art & Recipe Contest. Presented by Hawai‘i Gas, it’s a creative opportunity to reimagine school lunch while celebrating Hawai‘i’s local food system. Get all the exciting details here.
In partnership with the Hawai‘i State Department of Education, trainings are free for HIDOE educators and include the Where Would We Be Without Seeds curriculum and classroom supplies. Teachers who implement the program are eligible for a HAF-sponsored field trip to a local agricultural site.
